SUMMARY:IN PERSON: Gather & Ground: Compassionate Community Building
DESCRIPTION:Gather & Ground: Compassionate Community Building \nJuly 7th through September 30th\, 2025 \nTuesdays\, Thursdays\, and Fridays \n5-7 PM PT \nIn person only \n  \nStarting the week of July 7th through September 30th\, we are piloting a new summer effort to have the center open every Tuesday\, Thursday and Friday from 5-7pm. The first hour (5-6pm) will be for meditation in our temple or compassion room space or to peruse our library offerings. The second hour (6-6:45pm) will be for a fun social potluck in the kitchen space. Everyone is encouraged to bring something to share with the group. We hope this effort will build some momentum and energy for EBMC and bring more people in our community together in-person. \n  \nThese new community building hours are the same evenings as our Alphabet (Tuesdays 7pm)\, BIPOC (Thursdays 7pm) and Maha Sanghas (Fridays 7pm) so we hope this effort will also encourage people to join those groups with a hope to generate enough attendance to bring them back to in-person every week! This was also based on feedback from the survey. See more info about our Practice Groups here. \n  \nThere are so many reasons to be in community right now and EBMC wants to support this by opening our space during these times to anyone who needs it. We are stronger when we are in solidarity together to meet the moment we are in. We hope to see you soon! Come practice. Come snack. Come as you are. Feel free to bring a friend! \n  \nPlease note: During these specific hours\, masks will be encouraged\, but not required. Again\, this is a pilot effort that we are trying in this one area based on survey responses\, with a goal of expanding our circle\, but as of now\, our masking policy remains the same for all other programming and events.

The first hour (5-6pm) will be for meditation in our temple or compassion room space or to peruse our library offerings. The second hour (6-6:45pm) will be for a fun social potluck in the kitchen space. Everyone is encouraged to bring something to share with the group. We hope this effort will build some momentum and energy for EBMC and bring more people in our community together in-person. \n  \nThese new community building hours are the same evenings as our Alphabet (Tuesdays 7pm)\, BIPOC (Thursdays 7pm) and Maha Sanghas (Fridays 7pm) so we hope this effort will also encourage people to join those groups with a hope to generate enough attendance to bring them back to in-person every week! This was also based on feedback from the survey.

SUMMARY:IN PERSON: Gather & Ground: Compassionate Community Building
DESCRIPTION:Gather & Ground: Compassionate Community Building \nJuly 7th through September 30th\, 2025 \nTuesdays\, Thursdays\, and Fridays \n5-7 PM PT \nIn person only \n  \nStarting the week of July 7th through September 30th\, we are piloting a new summer effort to have the center open every Tuesday\, Thursday and Friday from 5-7pm. The first hour (5-6pm) will be for meditation in our temple or compassion room space or to peruse our library offerings. The second hour (6-6:45pm) will be for a fun social potluck in the kitchen space. Everyone is encouraged to bring something to share with the group. We hope this effort will build some momentum and energy for EBMC and bring more people in our community together in-person. \n  \nThese new community building hours are the same evenings as our Alphabet (Tuesdays 7pm)\, BIPOC (Thursdays 7pm) and Maha Sanghas (Fridays 7pm) so we hope this effort will also encourage people to join those groups with a hope to generate enough attendance to bring them back to in-person every week! This was also based on feedback from the survey. See more info about our Practice Groups here. \n  \nThere are so many reasons to be in community right now and EBMC wants to support this by opening our space during these times to anyone who needs it. We are stronger when we are in solidarity together to meet the moment we are in. We hope to see you soon! Come practice. Come snack. Come as you are. Feel free to bring a friend! \n  \nPlease note: During these specific hours\, masks will be encouraged\, but not required. Again\, this is a pilot effort that we are trying in this one area based on survey responses\, with a goal of expanding our circle\, but as of now\, our masking policy remains the same for all other programming and events.

SUMMARY:IN PERSON: Fierce Vulnerability: Healing\, Spirit & Action in Times of Collapse
DESCRIPTION:IN PERSON: Fierce Vulnerability: Healing\, Spirit & Action in a Time of Collapse \nSaturday September 6th 2025 \n10 AM to 4 PM PT (Time Zone Converter) \nWith Kazu Haga \nOpen to all \nThe center is fragrance-free and wheelchair accessible \nN95/KN95 masks required \n  \nNOTE: This event has now been sold out! Thank you to everyone who registered! \n  \nWe will discuss the teachings from Kazu Haga’s latest book\, “Fierce Vulnerability: Healing from Trauma\, Emerging through Collapse“. The book invites people into imagining a movement that sees injustice not as a political issue but a manifestation of collective trauma\, and therefore understands that we can’t “shut down” injustice anymore than we can “shut down” trauma. \nThrough touching our own heartbreak and vulnerability\, we will mobilize the fierceness to stop violence and injustice while cultivating the love necessary to heal it. \nThe workshop will include dharma talks\, meditations\, role-plays and interactive small group work. \nAll are welcome! \n  \n\n\nCost \nThe teachings are regarded as priceless. So they are offered without a fee. You are invited to support the teachings and our efforts by contributing voluntary donations (the practice of “Dana”) for the expenses of the meditation center and the support of the teachers. \nThe ticket prices are listed as different tiers with suggested donations based on income ranges. For those who wish to give more\, you may choose an “add-on” to your ticket. For those unable to give\, there is an option for that. \nNote that all financial gifts received here go directly to EBMC\, and we invite you to give separately to our teachers\, using the information below. \n  \nOther ways to give: \nTo make a gift to sustain the work of East Bay Meditation Center\, you may do so via Paypal: paypal.me/eastbaymeditation or our website: eastbaymeditation.org/dana 100% of our programming is sliding scale and no one will ever be turned away for lack of funds. \n  \nPlease also consider giving a financial gift to our teachers as well\, who do not receive a salary for their work\, and give their teachings freely to all. \nVenmo: @kazuhaga \nPaypal: PayPal.me/kazuhaga \nkazuhaga.com/support \nPlease reference “Fierce Vulnerability”. \n  \nThank you for the gifts of your generosity and for supporting the work of East Bay Meditation Center and our beloved teachers who have volunteered their time. \n  \nFor in-person participation: \nFor those wishing to practice in person\, space will be limited to 60 people to allow ample space for social distancing. Participants will be asked to wear N95 or KN95 face masks. (N95 face masks will be available at EBMC.) Please note: The teacher may be unmasked while teaching. \nTo attend in person\, you need to be completely free of fragranced body and clothing products — more information and a list of fragrance free products\, including those that are especially good for people of color\, appears on our website: https://eastbaymeditation.org/resources/fragrance-free-at-ebmc/ \nEast Bay Meditation Center is a scent free / fragrance free space and is wheelchair accessible. \n  \nPublic Transportation/Parking: \n– We strongly encourage public transportation/biking/walking since parking in the neighborhood is limited.Please avoid parking your car on the street in a metered space during this time as it will cause an interrupted retreat experience. \n– EBMC is 4-5 blocks from 19th Street Bart (about a 7 minute walk). \n– EBMC has bike parking inside the center. \n– Please note that parking meters are enforced Monday – Saturday\, 8 am – 6 pm. \n– Parking on Alice\, Jackson and 17th between Alice and Lakeside drive is unmetered and has no time limit on Saturdays. – There are also garages on Harrison at 15th and on Harrison between 17th and 19th.

He is a founding core member of the Ahimsa Collective\, a Jam facilitator and author of Healing Resistance: A Radically Different Response to Harm and Fierce Vulnerability: Healing from Trauma\, Emerging through Collapse.

SUMMARY:IN PERSON: Gather & Ground: Compassionate Community Building
DESCRIPTION:Gather & Ground: Compassionate Community Building \nJuly 7th through September 30th\, 2025 \nTuesdays\, Thursdays\, and Fridays \n5-7 PM PT \nIn person only \n  \nStarting the week of July 7th through September 30th\, we are piloting a new summer effort to have the center open every Tuesday\, Thursday and Friday from 5-7pm. The first hour (5-6pm) will be for meditation in our temple or compassion room space or to peruse our library offerings. The second hour (6-6:45pm) will be for a fun social potluck in the kitchen space. Everyone is encouraged to bring something to share with the group. We hope this effort will build some momentum and energy for EBMC and bring more people in our community together in-person. \n  \nThese new community building hours are the same evenings as our Alphabet (Tuesdays 7pm)\, BIPOC (Thursdays 7pm) and Maha Sanghas (Fridays 7pm) so we hope this effort will also encourage people to join those groups with a hope to generate enough attendance to bring them back to in-person every week! This was also based on feedback from the survey. See more info about our Practice Groups here. \n  \nThere are so many reasons to be in community right now and EBMC wants to support this by opening our space during these times to anyone who needs it. We are stronger when we are in solidarity together to meet the moment we are in. We hope to see you soon! Come practice. Come snack. Come as you are. Feel free to bring a friend! \n  \nPlease note: During these specific hours\, masks will be encouraged\, but not required. Again\, this is a pilot effort that we are trying in this one area based on survey responses\, with a goal of expanding our circle\, but as of now\, our masking policy remains the same for all other programming and events.
